Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 7 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs Geelong
While our injuries are a major concern and has destabilized our back line, we make too many mistakes. I think defensively we are getting drawn to the ball but not impacting on the contest and when the ball spills to the opposition they have players free out the back which leads to easy goals against us. We either need to impact the contest or have players structured back to prevent these out breaks.
The umpiring was appalling. They made wrong decisions that led to Geelong having extra chances which they often took. I think Williams got hit in the eye which is why he went down and whether he went down a bit easy or not, it was another free kick to us the umpires missed which resulted in a goal. I note the Match Review Committee found the incident warranted a fine for the Geelong player. Maybe the Fox commentators might admit they may have got it wrong, but I don't expect it.
I watched On The Water Front the other day. Carlton has to decide whether they want to be contenders or not. We need to get tougher in our heads. Too many missed opportunities. We need to get better.

I thought we were in trouble in that third quarter but this Carlton side does not appear to give up.

I believe you need 30 players on your list you can rely on to win a flag. At the start of the year I thought we had 33 and after the first game I thought Carroll made 34. With Silvagni and Docherty out we have 32. For next week's game, Cerra, Fogarty, Motlop, McGovern, Martin, Cuningham and Saad are unavailable with doubts on Marchbank, Cincotta and Big Durdin. Young is likely to come into the side if Marchbank is unavailable and Cowan, who I have at 35, could come in if Cincotta is unavailable. We are starting to get down into the young guys of Binns, Moir and Lemmey.

TDK clearly beat Jackson, for all the possessions the Freo midfield accumulated they never really dominated the game and Carlton can get better but I am not sure Freo can.
It is becoming a wild ride to follow Carlton atm but the never say die was a hallmark of the Barassi and Jezza sides of the 60's and 70's. This could become the trademark of the Voss side.
